Wearing too much gold for Biff.

Its my understanding that Gat people are poor and likely to be the criminal type or is that Romsey people?

romsey people are to rich to be criminals

romsey people don't have any gold or good taste

hard to know about criminal types as romsey is lawless

but, given there are no alpacas in the pic, probably no romsey aristocracy there

Unlike our social inferiors, we of polite society in Romsey do not boast about our wealth. "The lads" would consider it quite vulgar. However, suffice to say that we are not in such a parlous state that we need share our bathwater. I am certain such behaviours occur at the Gat but then again, you expect that from street people? As "the lads" and I don't frequent places like Borewood and the Peoples Republic of Frankston I am unable to comment on the behaviour of those particular commoners .

I stand corrected DC but, as you can see, I pay little attention to the chattering masses.

Its my understanding that Biff and his Ladies culled the Alpacas so that the Aye Ayes can take their place.

After a long day at the salt mines an ice cold Heineken is hitting the mark.

Half way there, two to go and then some sane weather.

The Latrobe Valley would be a good place to start, albeit a little unfair to Moe.

Well the Latrobe Valley's probably never voted Libs, so that ticks the first box.

Very nervous here in the western suburbs.

The federal seat of Melbourne very nervous. If it wasn't for the high concentration of hospitals and Uni's in the area, the Libs would happily nuke 'em.

Your safe MS too much business to be cutting them off.

The North and West are expendable

You guys having power issues?

didn't we pay heaps and heaps more for our electricity so the network could be upgraded to avoid such shortfalls?


I'll just turn on the generator. It blows out dreadful diesal fumes and creates a terrible racket but it doesn't impact on me as I have it near the neighbours place.

If I called dlanders "monkeys", I'd have the Society for the Protection of Monkeys chasing me down for slander.

That is my understanding as well dc.

Bring back the SEC I say.

We have been on the downhill slide ever since Jeff sold it.

Public transport and utilities...

we got it all slightly wrong :mellow:

of course i wouldn't just assume that the public service and their political masters would necessarily do any better

tell ya one thing...they never would have ordered trains that didnt work all over the whole system and thus requirer 100's of millions spent on resignalling and associated

things. !! requires extra driver training and accreditations etc.

be funny...if it wasnt

are you sure they wouldn't make similar bungles? history would indicate it just as likely

but hey, i'm not on either side of the argument, just pointing out that making something part of the public service is not necessarily a panacea. it's not black and white

i am swayed though to think something like public transport necessarily being run at a loss is not a good match for quasi-privatisation where the govt own the infrastructure and rolling stock

i'm not convinced though that they would be any cheaper or $efficient

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
